Introduction
The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all possible frequencies of electromagnetic radiation.

Theories

 Magnetic attraction was once accounted for by Aristotle and Thales as the working of a soul in the stone.
In the 11th century, the Chinese scientist Shen Kuo (1031–1095) was the first person to write of the
magnetic needle compass and that it improved the accuracy of navigation by employing the astronomical
concept of true north (Dream Pool Essays, AD 1088 ), and by the 12th century the Chinese were known to
use the lodestone compass for navigation. In 1187, Alexander Neckam was the first in Europe to describe
the compass and its use for navigation.

 In the thirteenth century Peter Peregrinus, a native of Maricourt in Picardy, made a discovery of fundamental
importance. The French 13th century scholar conducted experiments on magnetism and wrote the first
extant treatise describing the properties of magnets and pivoting compass needles. The dry compass was
invented around 1300 by Italian inventor Flavio Gioja.
 Archbishop Eustathius of Thessalonica, Greek scholar and writer of the 12th century, records that Woliver,
king of the Goths, was able to draw sparks from his body. The same writer states that a certain philosopher
was able while dressing to draw sparks from his clothes, a result seemingly akin to that obtained by Robert
Symmer in his silk stocking experiments, a careful account of which may be found in the 'Philosophical
Transactions,' 1759.
